Here is one I took of a plane at night.

that was in Aperture priority. tried to do the same thing in manual and I couldn't do it.
I currently only have the on camera flash and I really don't use it for much. When I have used it I'm generally in AP mode for the same reason you stated above.

Oh nice image of the plane by the way.
